OPTIMAL ENGINEERING MOTION CONTROL ALLEGRA CONTROLLER
OES Optional Engineering Motion Control Unit
Model Allegra-2-10 Controller System
X-Y-Z Motors / Trackball / Joystick Controller System
This motion control system is stand-alone or externally controlled, easy-to-use, plug-and-play and cost effective solutions for motion control applications.
Each system includes the power supplies, controller, the micro-stepper and/or servo motor drivers. and motors.
This motion control system supports up to 4 axes of motion, 16 TTL / CMOS inputs, 16 TTL / CMOS outputs, 3 analog inputs, and up to 5 optical encoder inputs. The command port is provided for stand-alone operation.
The system may be controlled in different ways;
In this mode, the controller does not need an external device such as a PC to operate. The controller is programmed in a simple programming language. The code is developed, downloaded to the controller, run and saved in the controller's non-volatile memory using the supplied Integrated Development Environment (IDE) software.
In this mode, the external host such as a PC, micro-controller or PLC sends a series of commands to the controller via the RS-232 serial port. The controller processes and performs the incoming commands and responds with proper messages.
The supplied user friendly Control Panel software allows the user to set-up the module quickly. The operator is able to move the mechanism to different positions by pressing the corresponding buttons of the Control Panel or by using the joystick and/or trackball.
4) Desk Top Operator Interface Terminal
The terminal allows the user to operate the controller without needing an PC, PLC or host controller. The user friendly interface design allows the user to enter the motion parameters and make the move.
The system can also be operated using an analog joystick or a trackball. The speed of the motor is proportional to the tilt angle of the joystick or the rotational speed of the trackball.
